For example, in the word "compre," how do I get an accent mark on the "e?"

Answer 1

If you use a PC:

á = alt 160
é = alt 130
í = alt 161
ó = alt 162
ú = alt 163
ñ = alt 164
Ñ = alt 165

Answer 2

This is a short list of foreign characters enterable in just about any Windows word processor, text editor, browser or email client. To get these characters, 1. Make sure your keyboard is in NumLock mode. 2. Hold down the ALT key and enter the number on the numeric keypad. (Note that many laptops have a blue FN key that changes a set of keys, also with blue numbers on them, into a numeric keypad.) Character ALT sequence Ç 128 ü 129 é 130 â 131 ä 132 à 133 å 134 ç 135 ê 136 ë 137 è 138 ï 139 î 140 ì 141 Ä 142 Å 143 É 144 æ 145 Æ 146 ô 147 ö 148 ò 149 û 150 ù 151 ÿ 152 Ö 153 Ü 154 á 160 í 161 ó 162 ú 163 ñ 164 Ñ 165 ¿ 168 ¡ 173 Hope that helps.

Answer 3

If memory serves me correctly it's "ctrl 130" for e. "ctrl 164" for n. And I don't remember the rest but you can easily figure those out too.
Note: this doesn't work with laptops because you have to have a number pads and most laptops don't have number pads.

Answer 4

Try with alt 130
I have a keyboard with Spanish language, so I can write
compré.

Answer 5

compré

On Mac, do OPTION+e, then release and press any vowel you want!
